A guide for this piece: about $126, based on the 10% US charge on the declared value of goods made in Japan.
The final figure is set by US Customs and depends on where the piece was made and the kind of object it is. Many antiques over a century old carry no ordinary duty; most jewellery and leather goods add a single-digit rate.
With EMS, any charge is collected by your postal service on delivery. For pieces of significant value we can often arrange duties prepaid before dispatch.

A scrapbook in wool
Mihara crowds the front and sleeves with letters, pennants and stray script, then leaves the back to one quiet sentence about old shoes. The cropped, ballooning cut turns a familiar form into something closer to sculpture.
Best for: Collectors of Japanese designer outerwear; statement layering

A cropped, deliberately oversized varsity jacket from Maison MIHARA YASUHIRO, reference B15BL041: chocolate brown wool, black cowhide sleeves, a front and arms covered in chenille letters, pennants and printed script, and a single embroidered line across the back. Size 40.
The Piece
The front reads like a scrapbook. A tan chenille M sits on the chest beside lines of white printed script; a small embroidered compass badge and the house's white label patch sit near the hem. One sleeve carries a chenille Y marked 1995, a red pennant and more script; the other a chenille 72 above a stack of felt pennants and arrow tabs.
The back is left almost bare, with one sentence embroidered in pale blue script: Don't throw away your old shoes. The body is cut short and wide, with dropped shoulders and long sleeves that gather at striped brown, cream and navy rib cuffs. Snaps close the front, and the inside is lined in burnt orange quilted satin. Mihara Yasuhiro began as a shoemaker, which gives the line its wit.
